Last year, the Village of Bellevue started work on creating the second Tax Incremental Finance District in the community. The hope is to spur additional economic growth in the area around Eaton Road, Ontario Road and Huron Road. Permits were issued for the first part driving project which will include 64 units of higher end apartments. Still yet to come is an assisted living facility and approximately 38 single-family lots. This initial project will only cover a portion of the 216 acres of undeveloped land within the boundaries. The Village looks to be a partner to assist in spurring growth and development in this key strategic area.

To learn more about the Tax Incremental Finance District, please visit the following page on the Village of Bellevue website.

On Monday, February 20th the local Brownie Scouts
from Saint Bernard Church stopped by the Bellevue Fire-Rescue Department. The
group toured the station and also met with fireman who were training that
night. After meeting with fireman they gathered in the training room and learned
first aid skills, taught to them by Fire Officer Glen Unsinn. Officer Unsinn
taught the girls various skills such as bleeding control, treating Bee stings,
and what to do if someone falls and hurts their arm or leg. These were all
skills the girls needed to learn in order to receive their first aid badge.
Officer Unsinn said that all of the girls did an excellent job learning the
skills needed to acquire their first aid badge.

The solid waste industry is on the list of the top five most dangerous jobs behind logging workers, fishers, aircraft pilots and flight engineers. Those who are at the highest risk in the solid waste industry are refuse and recycling collectors.

In July 2013, Governor Walker passed Wisconsin Act 39 Slow Down to Get Around to encourage cautious driving near sanitation trucks. Unfortunately, this has done little to make the job safer. The Slow Down To Get Around law is not widely known in Wisconsin even though it passed almost four years ago.

In 2016, there were four fatalities in Wisconsin in the solid waste industry. There are several ways to help protect refuse and recycling collectors, they include; slowing down and being very cautious when moving around a sanitation truck, placing your bins in the appropriate spot so they do not have to get out to collect or move your bin, and sharing information about this law with everyone.

The Bellevue Business and Professional Association (BBPA) awarded its 2016 Citizen of the Year Award to Laura Mossakowski for her dedication to community involvement and her contributions to the development of the soon to be opened dog park in Bellevue. Pictured are Steve Mastalir presenting the award to Laura, along with her husband Pete.

This is the 30th year of BBPA presenting this award. BBPA was started in 1972. Initially it was an avenue for local business owners to gather, get to know one another, share concerns and keep up-to-date with new developments in the area.

Today it is their goal to keep the Village of Bellevue strong by encouraging members and the local community to use the services offered by BBPA members. By doing so, they help strengthen the profitability of members, the community and make Bellevue an attractive area for new business. BBPA is also responsible for the new publication Bellevue Beat.

The 2017 Brown County Homebuilders Spring Showcase of Homes will be held March 4th & 5th and March 9th through the 12th. Two of this years entries are located in the Village of Bellevue within the Bedford Heights Subdivision.

Sadly, due to the warm weather we are having, there is no snow remaining on the Josten Park Sledding hill and we have cancelled the Family Sledding Night scheduled for this Friday, February 17th. We hope to have more conducive weather next year and will plan to hold this event again in 2018. Thank you.
